  1. Why are you pursuing politics instead of computing on Ask the 'Geek Candidate' for California Governor · · Score: 1

    Says you studied at UC. Did you graduate from UC Berkeley? In which areas of computer science are you most knowledgeable, and how do those areas relate to politics?

  2. Re:Way To Be Flaming... on Nanotech Pinball and Miniature Engines · · Score: 1

    ISuppose looking for applications for lighter fluid comes naturally in England, where the line from Pattern Recognition has it: [where still]People smoke, and drink as though it were good for you.

  3. Re: Using MCI "The Neighborhood" Plan on Experiences with Alternate Local Phone Companies? · · Score: 1

    I live in the NE burbs of Chicago and I have also switched over to MCI and figured out that the right plan is the above-mentioned MCI "The Neighborhood" plan at about $50 plus maybe $15 taxes. Includes local, unlimited US long distance, voicemail. Previously I was paying SBC about the same amount before any long distance charges. So far the MCI service seems pretty much OK. (Quaintly, some of the customer service people weren't initially familiar with our having to dial area codes for (all) calls here.) Presumably, the recent SBC attempt to surrepticiously get the line lease rates jacked up is dead for now even though SBC are appealing the judicial knockdown, and MCI will continue to offer the plan. PS I use Comcast for internet, if the local phone lines were good enough and a decent price I would try to switch to DSL.
